This is my personal blog. I was Branch Secretary of Lambeth UNISON from 1992 to 2017 and a member of the National Executive Council (NEC) of UNISON, the public service union (www.unison.org.uk) from 2003 to 2017.
I am Chair of Brighton Pavilion Constituency Labour Party and of the Sussex Labour Representation Committee (LRC).
Neither the Labour Party nor UNISON is responsible for the contents of this personal blog. (Nor is my employer!)

Vote for Ken!

Like many UNISON members in Greater London, I commute to work from outside the City so won't have a vote in tomorrow's Mayoral election.

I hope that all those who have will vote for Ken (http://www.kenlivingstone.com/home) - not least to bring fares down for all of us criss-crossing London to work each morning.

Ken would have my first preference vote (as he did in 2000) but if he isn't your first choice at least make him your second.

Any public service worker who would vote for Tory toff Boris Johnson would betray not only their own interests but also all their colleagues - and failing to cast a positive vote for Ken is tantamount to a Tory vote.
